Windsor 2,143 Posted December 6, 2005 Banshees, I had a dream last night where I was watching the news and they announced Pinochet's death. Will he die now? Or does it mean 'in your dreams' as in its not going to be a 2005 success? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Star Crossed 33 Posted January 19, 2006 Forgery of his wife's handwriting? Preposterous! Next they'll be telling us that he imprisoned and tortured future leaders of his country... I couldn't find anything more relevant to his state of health than this, but it can't be good for his ticker, can it? "Ay caramba! Someone I tortured, and whose father I tortured to death, is now in charge of my house arrest. El Buggero!" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tempus Fugit 212 Posted January 25, 2006 General Pinochet's daughter is detained at Dulles airport for tax evasion in Chile. The general blames himself, ahh poor old bugger. Must be a strain on his old heart. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Pinochet Rules Posted February 2, 2006 General Pinochet's daughter is detained at Dulles airport for tax evasion in Chile. The general blames himself, ahh poor old bugger. Must be a strain on his old heart. Chile today is head and shoulders above the other South American countries. His policies proved to be extra successful in the long run. Today only 9% if Chile´s economy is state owned. Under Alende most of it was. Thank you General Pinochet for what you did . The risk of investment in Chile Today is only 60 points (=The LOWEST in the region). It all started in 1974 when he set regulations for foreign investments in his country. This example was followed by The UK in the eighties(=Maggie´s years) LONG LIVE PINOCHET!!! HISTORY WILL ABSOLVE YOU!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't think even Maggie went as far as having Death Squads, holding her opponents in football stadia, while they waited for interrogation, and possible execution. She was a big softie really.

It all started in 1974 when he set regulations for foreign investments in his country. This example was followed by The UK in the eighties(=Maggie´s years) Yes, quite. It would seem that the only policy of Pinochet's that didn't quite come off was his attempt to liquidate ALL of his political opponents: it seems a few of them "slipped through the net". Or should that be "slipped through the electrodes"? We all now know, with the benefit of hindsight, what a resounding economic triumph "Maggie's years" were. If only I'd known how instrumental you'd been in Britain's last two decades of economic buoyancy Thank you, Augusto. Hope everything works out ok with your trial.

Very true that Maggie sorted this country out. Thank God she had the balls to tackle the miners - look at the state of France when the unions decide to call a strike. I just wish she was still here to give the London Underground drivers a kicking. £30,000 to close the doors, put your feet up and let the computer take over - and then striking for more pay. Actually, sod Maggie - put Pinochet onto them! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sorry, but the phrase "hard left" is an almost perfect oxymoron. There's something about beards and sandals that never struck me as hard. I'm only having a laugh, well, ish.

Canadian Paul 93 Posted February 4, 2006 I will cheer when the f..krs dead. Murdering shitehawk. You know, General Pinochet is a figure that I don't know too much about. I mean, I know what happened and all and it seems that he's a very detestable figure, but does anyone around here have a strong opinion for one reason or another? I'm curious.
